you really think most rusian or any 2nd world country pilot gives a crap about scabbibg you out of a job?
this is the begginig of full foreing ownership and cabotage. you willl not have a job if those two scenarios occur. you will go on strike when Fred refuses to give you your flying back and is being done by some foreing entity and it will be a fiasco worse than the eastern one.
browntail, UPS says you will be doing all the intraeurope flying forever and ever and you really believe what those really honest guys running things say??? I tell you what, I can sell you a bridge really cheap and you can charge everyone who uses it. I'm selling it because I want to retire. the bridge is in San Francisco and is called "the golden gate" . is very profitable ,but, like I said, ,I want to retire. only $3mil, it must be a bargain for you since you are making so much money as a UPS piot and will be making so much moore when you get a new contract
You are right, I will be making a whole lot more as a UPS pilot with our new contract. Our new contract will guarantee the flying to the IPA. If UPS renigs for any reason, then a grievance and even more money in my pocket in addition to the flying. Since the pax guys sold out for code sharing, your concerns are valid. But with UPS and probably so FedEx, our scope language will prevent management from double breasting in any theater around the globe.
